otherone, they only make quantities available that weren't sold through subscriptions.  My guess is just a few thousand were available for general sale.  The more popular eras sell the quickest, and they always sell out.  The best thing to do is subscribe.  Only $100 for 4 releases, and they always hold their value so if one or more of them is not to your liking you can always sell them and not lose money.

Thanks snackeyP.
Didn't know that and that does make sense.
I always get the subscription because like you said for a hundred bucks for four brand new releases every year I personally consider it a bargain.

I just got my copy yesterday  -  had a real tough day at work and then proceeded to get in the right frame of mind. I was rewarded with an absolutely smoking version of ; Cold Rain and Snow. This era of the Dead is my personal favorite but sad that there was no Pig Pen in the line up but Jerry's guitar work which I think is through ; Alligator is just plain  Sweetness . Enjoy

Agreed garebear.  This one is special.  I put in disc one last night only planning to listen to 2-3 tracks but ended up playing all of disc one.  Sound quality is fantastic but the real treat is the performance.  Tonight I will also get in the right frame of mind and play the rest of the show, LOUD!
